Attempted Burglary - Gilder Coin Shop - Tampa, FL

During the morning hours of 07/17/14 patrol units responded to an alarm call at 5802 N. Armenia (Gilder Coin Shop) and located an unsecured gate and pry marks on the back door. Further investigation of the video showed 4 unidentified males attempting to gain entry to the business using power tools and a pry bar on the back door. No entry was gained and eventually the 4 unknown male subjects fled in a silver 4 door vehicle, possibly a 2006-2012 Chevrolet Impala. The subjects were captured on camera by the neighboring business and appears to show a larger possibly H/M with distinct long dreadlocked style hair and camo pants. The other subjects appear to be wearing hoods/masks.

The suspects may have cased the shop prior to the attempted burglary. It is also reasonable to believe that the suspects may attempt additional burglaries of coin shops in the surrounding areas.
